Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

Science is hard. You gotta prove it, test it, and reproduce the results. Pseudoscience is easy. You make it up, add some fear, and watch ignorant people spread it.

TIL — the CSS working group is working on `appearance: base;` which will give us: - Identical styles across all browsers - 100% WCAG 2.2 compliant controls - Easy ways to customize all these form elements 💯 This talk is time very well spent. 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgSi...
Example showing how `appearance: base` can apply customizable base styles.

Some people sort css properties within a rule by some categorization like layout vs type. Other people simplify to alphabetical order. Both are Incorrect. The Correct Way is to sort properties by their initial draft spec commit date, and then order of definition within the spec.

If you want to defeat radical dishonesty and LIES, it’s going to take radical honesty and TRUTH. And many of you can’t handle the truth. Here, let me prove it to you with one word that has been banished from Congress and corporate media: Genocide.

So much for the free market…
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Gary Winslett (@GaryW
...) 7 hours ago. The post reads: "So...price controls. That’s where we’re at now. Price controls." Below this, there is a headline from a Business Autos article titled: "Trump Warned U.S. Automakers Not to Raise Prices in Response to Tariffs. Threat came in a call earlier this month, in which carmakers feared punishment if prices go up."

Elon Musk's favorite supposed data expert, who he's retweeted at least a dozen times, claims she can only process 60,000 rows of data before her "hard drive overheats"
Tweet by @DataRepublican: "In my initial run, which processed the first 60,000 rows, I did not find these awards—my hard drive overheated long before I could complete a full pass through the database. In a later run, which I referenced in another post, I did identify two such awards. That discrepancy is a matter of sampling size, not an issue with the query itself.

I’ll now attempt a full run, which should capture the awards you found."

Donold is now classifying protests at Tesla dealerships as ‘domestic terrorism.’ Protest at a Tesla dealership and you get arrested as a terrorist. But attack the Capitol and you get a pardon.
